it is the coolest thing in the navy. it is shorter than that missile cruiser and stouter and the hole is reinforced to be like one of those ice breaking ships and when a u.s. navy guided missile cruiser run ares aground at the airport, where all of the planes flying in and out of the airport get a perfect view of that mu milliate i milliating stuck ship, when that is your particular roadside assistance need for your vehicle, if you are the navy what you call in is the baddest tow truck in the world. when that missile cruiser not stuck it took three and a half long days to that get thing unstuck. they tried everything. they tried hundreds of tons of water and they took the crew off and still they couldn't get it move. they tried again and again and again and again to tow that ship off the reef. in the end, it took the salvage ship 7 tug boats to get that ship yanked off the reef so that everybody at the airport would get them off with the navy. giant ships do not run fast aground very often. but when they do they can repa

was a senator from the great state of massachusetts, john kerry was an officer in the united states navy. he served in vietnam, where pretty famously he was awarded three purple hearts and a silver star and a bronze star. before he was the senator from the great state of texas, before he was a lawyer, ted cruz, on the other hand, went to princeton, and then went to harvard law school, where he did very well in school. it was therefore pretty breathtaking when senator ted cruz voiced his opposition to both senator kerry's nomination at the state department and to the nomination of chuck hagel to run the defense department. chuck hagel received two purple hearts in vietnam and walks around every day with shrapnel in his chest. it was pretty remarkable when we heard the reason why senator ted cruz says that those two wounded combat veterans are not going to get his vote in the senate. >> we've got two pending nominations, john kerry, chuck hagel. both of whom are very prominently anti-us. less than ardent fans of the u.s. military. >> they don't love the military. not like he does. he is th

"secretary of state hillary rodham clinton is leaving office with a slap at the critics of the obama administration's critics of the handling of the september attack on a u.s. diplomatic mission in libya. there are some people in politics and the press who can't be confused by the facts. they just will not live in an evidence-based world. and t
